Veggie Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in plenty of water for about 10 minutes if grilling on an indoor grill pan or for 30 minutes if grilling on an outdoor grill to prevent them from burning up.
• Place all of the veggies in a large bowl or baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and garlic. With your hands, toss to combine well. Stick onion pieces in with the vegetables to coat with the marinade; avoid tossing once onion is added so that the onion does not fall apart.
• Alternate the vegetables with the onions on wooden or metal skewers. The onions will get nice and juicy rubbing up against the other veggies. You can do this up to a few hours before you grill them.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Arrange the skewers on the grill pan and cook, turning often, until slightly charred, about 15 minutes. Remove from grill and serve hot or at room temperature.
• *Cook's Note: To get skewer-able chunks of onions, cut the onions in half through the core and then cut each half into quarters. Remove 2 or 3 of the innermost layers, leaving the larger outermost layers. They will fit nicely on your skewers.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. With a colander set in the sink, lightly sprinkle the eggplant or zucchini with a little salt. Toss well and set aside for 10 minutes.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine garlic, oregano and red-pepper flakes. Whisk in oil. Pat vegetables dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, and add to the bowl. Gently toss to coat. Let marinate while the grill heats up.
• Thread vegetables onto metal or pre-soaked bamboo skewers (see Tip), keeping the eggplant and zucchini on separate skewers, if using both vegetables. Reserve any leftover marinade at the bottom of bowl.
• When the grill is hot, add the skewers. Cook, rotating them carefully every few minutes, until evenly browned and slightly charred in places, about 7 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. Brush with remaining marinade and squeeze a lemon wedge all over. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill on medium-high heat.
• Warm the teriyaki sauce and sugar together in a small saucepan over low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Cut the bell peppers into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the white and light green parts of the spring onion into 1-inch pieces (discard the dark greens or reserve for another use).
• Thread the vegetables on six skewers, 2 pieces of pepper for every 1 piece of onions. Grill the vegetables until charred in spots and lightly cooked, about 6 minutes. Baste both sides of the skewers with the glaze a few times, turning often so that it chars in spots, about 1 minute. Transfer the skewers to a platter and drizzle the remaining glaze on top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

Steps:

• Soak 4 wooden skewers in water for 30 mins (this stops them burning.) Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Blend the honey, mustard and oil with seasoning.

Steps:

• Cook skewers on preheated grill until vegetables are tender, turning and basting vegetables with olive oil mixture occasionally, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium heat.
• Combine the oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper, stirring until mixed.
• Slide a zucchini slice down the skewer, followed by pieces of mushroom, red onion, and peppers, until there is a 1-inch gap at the top of the skewer. Brush each skewer liberally with the oil mixture.
• Repeat with the remaining skewers and vegetables.
• Grill the skewers for 12-18 minutes with the lid closed, flipping halfway.
• Enjoy!
